Finest Rant of the Day – Sorry, Momma.
DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! OBSCENITIES POUR FORTH IN THE FOLLOWING POST! (But you shouldn’t miss it.)
This morning, Albert Burneko of Deadspin wove the finest shimmering tapestry of obscenities, descriptors, and insults to perfectly describe the absurdity of the wild spinning the last two days that a little known comedienne somehow bullied the Press Secretary of the President of the United States during the WHCD. And somehow, Chris Cillizza got artfully caught in the crossfire. Just a brief sample:
“A frank and honest description of who she is and what she does would be much more harsh: Every day, Sarah Huckabee Sanders plants herself, by choice, between the public and the facts of what’s being done at the very highest levels of American executive power, and does her damnedest to break and delegitimize the means by which the two are brought together. She is one of the most visible and powerful people in American civic life, and she uses her visibility and power—she chooses to use her visibility and power—to confuse the public and degrade its grasp on the truth, rather than to inform or empower or serve it. Her willingness to do this on behalf of Donald Trump, day after day, and the unmistakable teeth-gnashing relish with which she does it, are the substance of her power, and the reason why anybody knows who the fuck she is at all.”
Trust me, patrons, THIS one is worth the read.
